Today, while riding the subway, I fell asleep. I awoke to find that someone had stolen my glasses. From off my face. FML

Today, I was on a train, sitting next to an old man who was reading a newspaper. Suddenly, he sneezed without putting his hands over his nose. Instead of turning towards the window, he turned towards me. FML

Use the force

Today, I accidentally threw a glass of iced tea in my own face, because the restaurant I'd been going to for over a decade switched from heavy glass mugs to identical light-as-a-feather plastic mugs. FML

Creeped out

By emoney - This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I was walking out of my front door in the town where I intern. I live alone and know no one. As I'm locking the door, I see a golf ball wedged between my mat and step. I notice that there's writing on it so I pick it up to read, "You look hot when you sleep." FML

Today, just like every morning this month, I woke up, put on my clothes, looked out my window, and was pointed at by a man in a ninja outfit on my neighbor's roof. The police still can't find him. FML

Today, I got on the bus to go to work. I managed to get a seat, but an old lady who looked tired had to stand. I offered her my seat, but she glared at me, frowned and said, "Go fuck yourself." Everyone laughed as I sat there in dismay. FML

BIKES?!

Today, I rode my bike to work. Once there, I realized I'd forgotten my bike lock. For fear of it being stolen, I quickly rode home and took my car instead. When I later got home, I realized my bike was missing. Someone stole it from my backyard. FML

Today, as I was about to walk across the street, a girl in front of me who clearly wasn't paying attention to the traffic, almost got run over. I grabbed her arm and jumped back. She was fine. I fell and fractured my arm and wrist. FML

YDI for falling asleep on the subway. People will grab what they can get and frames for glasses cost a fair amount sure he was able to sell them.

You *******. I fall asleep on public transport all the time. Just make sure your stuff is secure and cling to it while sleeping. Also, I'm surprised, that's not very Canadian OP.

#43, I'm guessing you bolt your glasses to your face when you ride the bus?

Not at all. I'm usually a light sleeper though. But one time I was dead asleep for my hour trip with a big travel bag and I still managed to wake up two minutes before my station and there was also a 20 minute delay apparently.

Thats an odd thing to steal, I guess they had the same prescription as you.

the actual lenses are much cheaper than the frames in many cases. If op had nice frames they could be over 200 easy. you can always take frames to get new lenses
